My art is about the joy of creating and experimenting.
The act of creating is more important than the result.
The time spent is a form of worship and thanksgiving
to my Creator for my gifts and talents.

Doodles and Color

Do you doodle? Do you doodle the same things over and over? I do. I find myself doodling trees, flowers and houses over and over again. I have several friends who are into Zentangles. I don't seem to be able to do those intricate things they do. My brain doesn't seem to be able translate what I see to my pen. Instead I do my own brand of doodles. I think I could fill a whole page of just numbers and letters. Sometimes I just fill a page of different styles of letters. I keep hoping that one day I'll be able to use one of the styles I'm practicing on a journal page. For now... I'll just doodle away and add a little colored pencil on top of it.

I don't doodle absent mindly, tho' I know many people doodle incessantly whilst chatting on the telephone. But yes, I do love to doodle. I really like your tree in this example and I like the idea of using words & numbers too. What you have done here reminds me a little of the work of Cathy Bluteau. Love it :o)
